Default Re: The profitablity of a bluff

All nice and smooth, but this line here is the one I have a problem with.

[ QUOTE ]
FE = The percentage of the time you guess all opponents will fold to your bluff

[/ QUOTE ]

Why try to make precise math if you don't know what you are talking about? If you start guessing at what percentage all opponents might fold (/random 0 100), why not try another shortcut and just guess if the whole play might work or not?

By just going "yay" or "nay" you save yourself a lot of calculations.

I agree with Shandrax.

Why not keep it a simple equity/pot odds formula? For a very rough guess that's a lot of calculation.

I liek the idea and I agree with the math but I don't think it's practical. the FE is just too big of a variable, too hard to calculate correctly.
